| “ | Unleash brutal attacks with double the drill power! Your speed and damage are both increased, and you can attack enemies above you while still burrowing below! | ” | — Figure description from Kirby and the Forgotten Land |
Twin Drill is an Evolved Copy Ability based on Drill that appears in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. The hat for this ability resembles the standard Drill hat, but is darker in hue and features two drills instead of one. When Kirby starts digging in the ground, a mini saw follows him around as he digs, which can damage enemies he passes under. Twin Drill digs faster than the previous evolutions, so a bigger Quake Surge can be made. In addition, Kirby shoots two additional drill-like projectiles when he digs out of the ground which fire diagonally upward.
The blueprint for Twin Drill can be found in Moonlight Canyon, inside a barrel tucked in the cliffside in the first area. Twin Drill is required to play the Treasure Road stage Dig and Duck! Runaway Parade.

| Move | Button execution | Description |
| もぐる Dig |
Hold B | Kirby burrows underground and is able to move under the ground, becoming immune to most enemy attacks and being able to reach previously unreachable areas. While underground, an orange power saw will poke out of the ground which can damage enemies. Called モコモコいどう (Lumpy Movement) while Kirby is underground. Called 水しぶき (Water Splash) when used on the surface of water. |
| つきあげドリル Burst Up Drill |
Release B after Dig, or use Dig for too long | Kirby jumps out of the ground drills first. This will shoot two drill-shaped projectiles in the direction Kirby emerged, as well as create a shockwave on the ground. |
| Quake Surge | Create a loop with Dig | The area of ground inside the loop will erupt upwards. The larger the loop, the more damage it deals. Enemies caught inside the loop will not move until they are hit. Name given by Weapons-Shop Waddle Dee. |
